The gangland trade must be very worthwhile. People are dying to get into it .

Not funny :rolleyes: criminal or not, someone just lost their life

Edit: Maybe he didn't lose his life but violence isn't the answer

This cycle will continue until they're all dead or all lifted off the streets. You kill one, we kill one and sadly there doesn't seem to be anyway of stopping it short of internment.

As long as the innocent aren't hurt then let them off I say

Well known criminal family.
This may be linked to Alan Ryan or the other murderers.

Is this all payback by the RIRA for that Alan Ryan fella being killed i wonder.

Irish_wolf · 28-09-2012 03:18PM

I feel sorry for the under staffed forensics team. So many killings over the past few weeks. Must have their work cut out for them...

Not so much sympathy for the 'High profile' gang member.

antodeco · 28-09-2012 03:18PM

Not trying to be funny, but I read the title as "another grandad murder in dublin".

The guy who did get shot was a well known scummer! His brother is far worse, and Im not surprised that this happened.

There must be huge profits if killing eachother is worth the risk?

GalwayGuy2 · 28-09-2012 03:51PM

Eh, I still don't believe the Fianna Fail "roving band of criminals" complaint:P

How many is that now though?

Whats your point? mine is that let them kill each other but not innocent people, or didn't you get that?

nudger · 28-09-2012 03:58PM

Believed to have been shot while collecting his kids from school, you would have to wonder was this by accident or have they really stooped so low as to make sure it was in front of the kids like the other 2 shootings this week.

starviewadams · 28-09-2012 04:02PM

More feckin checkpoints tonight then so.

If you let these incidents go unpunished then innocent people will end up getting killed. That was his point.

Quick bit of googling done, Think the poster who mentioned the RIRA could well be right...

Disgrace, no matter how much of a scumbag he may have been, in front of his kids is out of order.

It was nothing to do with letting these incidents go unpunished.

anyway

The people involved can be punished and innocent people can still get killed.

I think the fact that the last few murders took place in front of children is one of the most disturbing things I've heard in a long time.
If you're in that " business" then I think its obvious that you have to deal with the consequences of that line of work. Live by the sword, die by the sword.

But whether or not these guys are scum or murderers themselves I think it's profoundly wrong for anyone to commit such an act in front of children. If the odds weren't stacked against them enough they now have to deal with witnessing their father gunned down in front of them.

Life has become very cheap in Ireland lately. I'm not shocked by murders anymore, particularly gangland ones.

Its only a matter of time before one of these coked up cowboys opens up in busy street or shopping centre

I would have been a child when the troubles were going on so its not something I knew a huge amount about except that neighbours cousins were sent down from the north to stay for a while.

Like I said with the last one. **** them. Hope they wipe each other out. And if I hear Shane geoghans name been mentioned once more ffs. Yes innocents sometimes get caught up in it and its terrible but so long as they got the right man who cares. Hopefully someone else will be taken out in retaliation for this and long may the cycle continue
And as for been shot in front of the children. Maybe it will be a painful but valuable lesson and they will choose a different career

I could be reading this incorrectly but are you saying that sometimes innocent people get shot but once the original target gets shot eventually then it's ok?
